Card Choices
Captain Jonus He is an ISB agent and every time I deploy him I can say “my name is jonus”
Fondor vs. Sullust Fondor lets me get executer out cheaper, its also less force for them and I don’t think I need that many drain two systems, especially with merrejk to get them.
Unique Star Destroyers The each do something cool, most are ability 2
Undercover there are 12 spies in the deck…With undercover guys and my flipped objective their drains wont matter. I don’t play more because I fear corran.
Overwhelmed cause putting fully loaded nasty ships (falcon and outrider) back in their deck is cool.
Strategy
Pull Rendilli, pull corsucant DB. Most likely you will get a Imperial command or Piett or Merrejk in your hand. Use them to get merrejk out and start pulling your systems. Once you feel you are getting enough force, shuttle em up to a ship. (if you put a Star Destroyer at Corsucant, you get a free drain and they can’t deploy rebels to your DB and when was the last time you saw an alien spy?) Get your systems, battle and drain away. You can pull your DBs and Systems to get at least 14 force a turn from your systems. Beware because you will be giving away lots of force as well. You pilots will deploy hella cheap due to your Admirals Order. REMEMBER to retrieve an ISB agent every turn.
Match-ups
WYS Take over the system. Most WYS will perish if you take their system. Make sure you keep your AO out. Once that is accomplished, flip and put out some spies…their drains will be reduced and you will drain them out. Not to hard really.
Mains yeah, whatever. Flip, drain in space and block their drains with spies. They wont have anything to beat up on, and their drains will be reduced. You should be able to out drain them easily.
X-wings these are a challenge, grab their interrupts, and stay concentrated. This is where Dengar comes in handy. Against EBOX, hold on for dear life. They will try to spread and drain. You should have at least one concentrated drain of 3 and should be able to follow them around decently. Beware of power pivot. Use Imperial command to add a destiny, killing X-wings is the priority, not huge battle damage. You can win if you play smart.
#s you have YCHF in your deck with two twi leks, find it and win.
That’s all I can think of. Thanks for reviewing, feel free to D-mail me with questions about whatever…
